Suggest Treatment For Peripheral Neuropathy And Back Pain
I have been diagnose with Neuropathy after a bad fall about 9 months ago. I have tried much exercise on indoor bike, floor exercises, dead lifts, ab wheel exercises, squats about 3 times per week. My condition has not improved . When I had the fall I did crack 7 ribs and punctured my right lung. The lung has cleared up but my balance is very bad. The back pain is not that bad but my balance is very bad to the point that must use a cane or walker to get around. I have extreme difficulty stand straight. Must be bent over to walk with even the cane. Is their a good Neurologists in the Fort Lauderdale, Fl. area that you could suggest. By the way I am age 75. Jim T.
